Help small business owners realize their dreams at a nonprofit that makes a difference
Looking to experience the satisfaction and reward of helping to change people’s lives? Join the nation’s leading small business lender and award-winning nonprofit. Over four decades, we have provided more than $21.3 billion in financing to over 12,000 small business owners…and counting.
With a mission that inspires employees — and a management team that invests in them—the Momentus Capital branded family of organizations have been named among the best nonprofits in the United States, according to The NonProfit Times. Momentus Capital was ranked as the #3 large-sized nonprofit — which includes organizations with 250 or more employees — and #17 overall for organizations of any size.
This awards builds off our 2023 recognition in which both Capital Impact Partners and CDC Small Business Finance were each named to the list separately.
We promote a culture where employees look forward to coming to work, feel connected to their co-workers, have fun and are part of a team with shared values and goals. From team building to wellness events, we’re always planning meaningful activities for the company. (And they like it! Our employee tenure is twice the national rate.)

Rooted in entrepreneurial spirit
CDC Small Business Finance was founded in 1978 by entrepreneur and community activist Arthur H. Goodman. With a vision for economic development opportunities for all, Art committed himself to helping struggling communities build a better local economy.
Thanks to Art’s passion and dedication, and the team of entrepreneurial-minded executives and staff members after him, CDC Small Business Finance has grown into the nation’s leading nonprofit lender.
"When I tell people how I bought a building and was got a loan they are surprised. For me, it is the American dream."

"I got a lot of support along the way and a lot of questions answered. I wasn't wondering what was next, it was very planned out and easy and amazing, amazingly helpful."
Cindy Cate, Hello Birdie Nail & Lash Lab
"We didn't know anything about this process so to be able to ask questions and not feel like a dummy was really really great, CDC Small Business Finance really helped us through that."
